Will Devin Singletary Hold a Role in a Healthy Giants Backfield?

Saturday, June 20, 5:50 AM

A somewhat forgotten man of the 2026 offseason, New York Giants running back Devin Singletary agreed to restructure the final year of the contract he signed in 2024, and he appears to have fallen down the depth chart after joining the team as the free agent replacement for Saquon Barkley. As the only Giants running back to play all 17 games in 2025, Singletary's five rushing touchdowns helped to keep him at least fantasy viable while covering up for his poor efficiency and 3.7 yards per carry average. He finished the year in a usable timeshare situation, seeing 24.9 snaps per game to Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s 41.9 over the final nine weeks of the season, but in the first half of the year, with Cam Skattebo in the lineup, Singletary was the clear third option and at times hardly saw the field. From Weeks 2 through 7, with Skattebo serving as the primary back, Singletary topped a 30% snap share one time, in a game missed by Tracy. In three early-season games in which all three backs were healthy, the 28-year-old saw snap shares of 6%, 6%, and 4%. With Skattebo on track for a Week 1 start following the ankle injury that ended his rookie season, Singletary does not factor into 2026 drafts and is a player who can likely be dropped in dynasty leagues.

Jawhar Jordan "Playing Faster" as he Battles for RB3 Role

Wednesday, July 15, 9:20 AM

Houston Texans running backs coach Danny Barrett said that Jawhar Jordan is "playing faster than he was last year" as he battles for the RB3 role in 2026 behind newcomer David Montgomery and second-year back Woody Marks, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. After being selected in the sixth round (205th overall) in 2024 out of the University of Louisville, Jordan didn't play at all in his rookie season before carrying the ball 43 times for 193 yards and zero touchdowns in just four games in 2025. He rushed for 101 yards on 15 carries in his first regular-season game against the Arizona Cardinals, becoming the second player in franchise history to rush for 100 yards in their NFL debut. The 26-year-old is now trying to do enough in his third NFL season to stay ahead of undrafted rookies Noah Whittington and Joshua Pitsenberger, and veteran Evan Hull. Jordan's improvement and speed on the football field should be enough to land him the RB3 job if he can contribute on special teams as well, but he's going to need an injury to one of Montgomery or Marks to pop up on the fantasy radar as a waiver-wire pickup in single-year leagues in 2026.
